Section 1: How we got the Bible

Part 1.1: God invented an alphabet

Chapter 1.1.8 Alef, Tsadi, Final Tsadi, Ayin

These four letters represent God spoke and created the heavens and the earth, the righteous man, the righteous man put to death, and the flesh.

The vav drawn diagonally through the center of the Square Text Template, divides both horizontally and vertically. It distinguishes between heaven and earth, and between holiness and love. The dualism of the bible is NOT between good and evil as the Gnostics claim. The first occurrence of the aleph in scripture is as the invisible first letter of Genesis 1:1. It is a silent letter, but there it is also invisible. It represents God spoke and created the heavens and the earth and there was no one there so see or hear him do it."'

The two yods represent the two creations; heaven and earth. The vav distinguishes between them, but also joins them.

The tsadi has a diagonal vav like the aleph. It meets the lower horizontal in the lower right corner. The corner is where the normal vav meets man (the lower horizontal). It is the point of the cross. The best clarification of holiness and love happened on the cross.

The final tsadi extends below the line and is the same reconciliation of holiness and love but through death.

The ayin also reconciles holiness and grace, but here they do not meet at the point of the cross. It represents the flesh. The flesh (carnal mind) is war with God. ^[1] The instinctive nature of man chooses good and evil for itself, thereby usurping the place of God. ^[2] Reconciling holiness and grace without the cross cannot be done.
